Well, here’s one to watch. I’m going to go ahead and say up front that I’m skeptical, but given what we already know about President Trump and his “proclivities,” this wouldn’t be outside the realm of possibility. A former Trump campaign staffer from the 2016 election has emerged to claim that then-candidate Trump took her hand and attempted to kiss her, without her permission, at a Florida campaign stop. The staffer in question, Alva Johnson, has given her story to... Read more
On Wednesday, February 27, President Trump will be holding his second summit with North Korean dictator, Kim Jong Un. The two will meet in Vietnam, and as I wrote about on Sunday evening, expectations for anything more than a show are pretty low. The Trump administration is already suggesting that the demands placed on the rogue regime be “softened” in light of the information from our intelligence community that they’ve done nothing to curtail their nuclear ambitions since the first...

Well, this is exactly what we should be expecting from President Trump’s second planned summit with the murderous dictator, North Korea’s Kim Jong Un. After the first summit in Singapore, back in June 2018, the president returned singing Kim’s praises and declaring the nuclear threat from the rogue nation “over.” The subsequent days, weeks, and months proved that to be anything but truthful. While there were no missile tests, all intelligence sources showed that Kim’s regime continued to work at... Read more
For those who have been reading for a bit, you may remember that I covered the ugly case of Jeffrey Epstein, the wealthy financier (and party pal to Presidents Trump and Clinton) who was given a maddeningly lenient sentence back in 2008. Epstein was credibly charged with sex trafficking teen girls and using them as “entertainment” at parties on his various properties and with a host of other wealthy men. Epstein’s great fortune came by way of then-Miami U.S. Attorney... Read more
Here is the latest – but surely not the last – entry into the astounding hypocrisy of New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s philosophy of “Socialism for thee, but not for me.” Yesterday we talked about her very swampy behavior of giving her boyfriend a staff job, as well as giving a job to a wealthy benefactor, who used campaign money to pay that same boyfriend for “consulting” work. It was all so very D.C. of her. She’s living a capitalist... Read more
So this is a danger-level incident, brought on by serious doses of MAGA Kool-Aid. If you thought the would-be bomber of Trump critics, Cesar Sayoc was a menace, then Christopher Paul Hasson should really shake you. Hasson, a U.S. Coast Guard lieutenant stationed in D.C. was arrested on February 15 on drug and gun charges. That’s not the worst of it. According to prosecutors, Hasson was planning to murder citizens in what authorities refer to as “…a scale rarely seen in... Read more
So there’s something interesting going on in the Democrat fantasyland of newly minted Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. It would appear – and I caution that details are still emerging – that the fresh, young socialist wunderkind has adapted to life in the D.C. swamp in record speed, and with relative ease. She speaks about changing the world out of the face you see, but that second face is really just about benefitting she and her live-in boyfriend. Thanks to some clever... Read more
There is a pattern of behavior that has emerged with President Trump. Early in his presidency, with the Russia probe beginning to heat up, he reportedly asked then-FBI Director James Comey (according to him) for “loyalty.” He also, according to Comey, asked about letting Michael Flynn off the hook. For those keeping score, Michael Flynn, a retired Army Lt. general, was Trump’s first national security adviser. He lasted about 3 weeks, before he was forced to resign for misleading Vice...

We can make a lot of assumptions about why the former deputy director for the FBI, Andrew McCabe is saying what he’s saying in his book, “The Threat.” At the top of the list, as I’ve pointed out previously, we could make the argument that this is sour grapes, the revenge of a man who was fired after over 20 years of service to the country, with only 2 days left until he could retire with full benefits. He’s mad,... Read more
There have been a lot of tales centered around the frustration within the White House, as aides and administration officials attempt to keep the president focused and informed. The big problem seems to be he only believes what he sees on Fox News or hears from outside sources that spend more time stroking his ego than doing research. Former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe went ahead and did what pretty much every other former official in the age of Trump... Read more
